Urging humanity to war against Hitlerism, Alfons Goldschmidt, exiled German professor, attacked the Nazi regime in an address at ceremonies marking the initiation of 350 new members into District 1 of B’nai B’rith at Temple Emanu-El, 1 East Sixty-fifth street, last night.
Professor Goldschmidt said: “Hitlet preaches peace and prepares for war. He preaches for a larger population and diminishes it with wholesale murders. He talks of eliminating class war, and he is engaged in creating one of the bitterest class wars in history. Hitler talks of the general welfare of the people, but increases their misery.”
